MK Note: With 70% of the vote counted, 60%+ had voted “No”.  The Interior Ministry projects that the margin would hold, according to the AP report linked above. Varoufakis immediately projected the vote onto the whole of the EU.  “‘No’ is a big `yes’ to democratic Europe,” he said, “It’s a no to the vision of Europe an infinite cage for its people. It is a loud yes to the vision of the Eurozone as a common area of prosperity and social justice.”  The gamesman’s strategy is revealed. The psychological war begins. Finance ministries, treasuries and central banks the world over will be pulling all-nighters.  The markets will begin voting shortly.
